Brief Answer:
Yes you need to consult a Physician.

Detailed Answer:
HI

Greetings from Dr.Divakara.P

There are many causes for Dizziness, from simple and easily treatable causes to serious causes .

Simple causes are :

1. Abnormalities in BP: Both high and low BP can cause dizziness.
2. Abnormalities in Blood sugars: Both high and low Blood sugars can cause dizziness.

3. Abnormalities in blood sodium levels.
4. Low Hemoglobin ( Anemia )
5. Inner Ear problems .

Some serious problems are :

1. Heart Problems
2: Brain problem

In your case , your Blood pressure is normal ( though low normal ) but pulse is high. But giddiness with Severe Headache most of the time is due to problems in either Brain or eyes.


Yes you definitely need to consult a doctor. The doctor shall do certain physical examination and ask for certain tests like Complete Hemogram, Serum TSH, Serum Sodium, Eye check up and if required a Brain scan.

Hope this information is useful to you.
Any clarification feel free to ask.
